What will it cost to tile a kitchen floor that is 12 feet wide by 20 feet long if the tile cost $8.91 per square yard?

Well a couple hundred and a six pack ;)

Square feet to square yards and times cost..

Count up the square feet, divide by 9. That is square yards. Then, mulltiply that by 8.91

Ok, So I was thinking it was 12 X 20 making it 240 sq. ft. So then I have to convert that to sq. yds correct. so 240 X .111111111 which gives me 26.67 sq. yds. So total price is $237.63. Very nice. I was doing it way wrong. I was just dividing the 240 by 3 thinking it would give me the 80 sq. yds which was way too much.'

Thanks. It wasn't a homework problem either.

See I was close with a couple hundred ;)

So where's my six pack then ?

It is in the mail! :)
